that has been the story in the case of other state in america. we also have a situation where we are intercepting marijuana at the border, and yet at the same time there is people who are growing marijuana legally for sale to those who need it for medicinal purposes, and we have seen in california and other states widespread people who have illnesses that require the use of marijuana. so, the attorney general of the united states the day before yesterday -- or yesterday -- announced that they were going to try to adjust the war on drugs to the most serious drug crimes. one draws the conclusion that they are not going to pay much attention to minor crimes. there is also a problem we have today, and i always make up my mind on things, but half the people in prison today in the united states are on drug charges, and some on more minor charges than others, and there is such a thing as mandatory sentences which has caused dramatic overcrowding of prisons. federal courts have ordered california to reduce dramatically their prison population. this is re

i do not think that is america. schools can raise prices to capture students who can pay full price. people will pay that because that brand is synonymous with achievement in american life. what has happened is a lot of second-tier schools have followed suit. they have also raised their tuition to levels that most people cannot pay. not to make schools the whipping boy, but george washington university is one school exemplar of this. it is the most expensive school and the country, but no one would say it is of the highest quality. it is capitalizing on the belief that price is synonymous with quality. if you are a parent or student who maybe is uninformed about the college process or informed, you think, if i said make it there, you will have a great shot at achievement. there are a lot of kids out of gw coming out with huge amounts of student loan debt. when colleges capture this money, they sink it into expensive building projects and student centers and rock timing walls and things like that. they are fun. i wen
